first i said everything second..wtf is this game

Aliens are taking over the world thorugh terror and infiltration, their motives are unknown. You lead a secret organisation of soldiers ( who become soon to be-commando's), scientists and engineers from all known countries known as X-Com (Xtraterrestrial-Combat Unit). You are to engage the aliens on the battlefield, recover the ufos, and learn why and how they are taking over the Earth. You must protect civilians from alien terror attacks and stop governments from being infiltrated. Eventually you must take the battle on their own soil until you are victorious.

There were good turn based tactical games before.
Laser Squad for example..

He's right, there was a good tactical game called Laser Squad before X-Com. Actually X-Com was supposed to be another Laser Squad until Microprose (the company that hired the designers of Laser Squad) said to the designers, "Make it like this *Draws up X-Com* and the makers of Laser Squad said "Ok," and voila, X-Com, the next baby was born which incorporated the good stuff of Laser Squad.

Apoc is great, but it needs some tweaks.
Damages need to be increased in order to make it more like ufo series.
